This is a new variation…”arms” stretched out in front. He is asleep …eyes partly open.<\/p>\n

\"Karl\"<\/p>\n

This looks more comfortable – my sweet boy…he was snoring when I took this. Well, it is 4 a.m. – I’ve been waking early and I just get up and get to it…one of the benefits of working from a “home” office. Starting very early most days is how I can take time during the day for a long walk or errands or sometimes a nap of my own!<\/p>\n

A benefit of this nearly empty (still just 5 of us) rv park is that I’m sitting on an end spot – no one within 100 yards of me and nothing but prairie to one side. I don’t have to worry about light and noise bothering anyone and can leave blinds and shades open on the “prairie-side” – even at night. The park has low, parking lights and no bothersome “street-lamp” lighting to shine in. I have this thing about liking to get up in the night and look out – it is perfect here with just the low, twinkling, site lights.<\/p>\n

I was up several times last night. The wind howled most of the night. The slide-out sections of the motorhome have “toppers” – canvas awning-type things on rollers that roll out with the slide when it extends and keep dirt, etc. from collecting on the roof of the slide. They work…the downside is in high wind they “flap”. They are fairly taught but not tight enough to stop some flapping in wind. Between the living room slide and the bedroom slide, it can sound like I’m on a sailboat and all of the sails have been let loose to flap in the hurricane…it is noisy is what I mean and sounds like things are coming apart. In Ohio, the bedroom topper came completely unrolled. The slide looked like it had its own parachute – that’s when I brought the slide in. I don’t like to do that as Karl’s preferred sleeping place – other than the sofa – is between the bed and the back wall which is unaccessible with the slide in… Well…there is that expression “let sleeping dogs lie”! – there must be a reason for it as my dog is not spoiled… he’s not!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
